Twelve children, ages 7 to 16, were “signed” as the inaugural TaxSlayer Bowl Dream Team as representatives and ambassadors for the TaxSlayer Bowl through their participation on the Dream Team.
Over the 13 weeks of the college football regular season, each of the dreamers – identified by Dreams Come True – will be highlighted individually and also receive an individualized special time which will utilize collegiate sports to develop unique, memorable experiences of interest to the individual dreamer.
Special times for Preston Fowler, Darian Dinkins, Gage Spurlock, Devon Zona, Gregory Howard, Carson Jacobs, Braiden Crowley, Jacob Lopez, Summer Bridges, Andrew Eunice, Aaron Eunice and Miles Watts can range from scouting trips to SEC, ACC or Big Ten football games to behind the scene experiences, meet and greets or in-game opportunities at this year’s TaxSlayer Bowl.
At the conclusion of the college football regular season, the Dream Team will graduate from their Dream Team jerseys to TaxSlayer Bowl green jackets, officially making them honorary Dream Team members of the TaxSlayer Bowl committee.
The Dream Team experience will include a meet-and-greet with participating team players and cheerleaders in the Dream Room at Wolfson Children’s Hospital in late December and conclude with being honored during the 73rd annual TaxSlayer Bowl on Saturday, December 30.
